RADIO-5.11.05.27
Software information:

Can you please help me on what can i do to be able to correctly root my Desire?
(sorry for my bad English)

Hi,
I just received a couple of new Desires with HBOOT 0.93.0001 preinstalled.
Has anyone seen this before, and is it safe to root?
Thanks,
Adam
Go into settings and about and list firmware details.u might have a new radio too.
Hoot prob 4 slcd tho

You don't root a bootloader. But if you have Froyo, you will not be able to root it. You'll have to downgrade the software first.
Did you get the Desire from Vodafone UK? I know their new 2.2 OTA update changes the HBOOT to 0.93 apparently (which can't be rooted at present)
Thanks for the quick responses.
The Desires did indeed come from VF UK, and yes they are SLCD.
The radio version is the same as the one I've seen on this site: 32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2
Looks like I'll have wait until one of the hacking ninjas works out an easy way to get a root applied to a Froyo desire...

1. Can it be rooted
2. Is it slcd or amoled
It can be rooted my desires hboot is the same. I think its amoled but you can ring HTC and they will tell you.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
If it was just the mobo and you were on 0.80 then you're on AMOLED...either way you can root without issues
Yes it can bee rooted mine is also 0.93
look at this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=776696
same hboot,radio and slcd and i was able to root using unrevoked 3.21
Tried unrevoked 3.21 (4 - 5 times) and it would not root it. Spoke to guys on irc and they dont know why it did not work.
Wondering if I should go down the downgrade 2.2 to 2.1 then root then use a custom rom back to 2.2. I want to try the cyanogen rom really.
OH and thanks guys
What happens (or not) when you try?
Bascially it says its doing it but it aint.
Waiting for boot when its already rebooted.
Pushing recovery when its not.
connect device.

Any success yet?
Did you buy yours with this version of Hboot or was it upgraded via OTA? when?
a couple of mates have same problem can't root 0.93.0001
Yeah all sorted now thanks. Followed the "how to" at the unlocker
Rooted with unrevoked
Rom manager failed to flash 2 or 3 different roms so I flashed with Leedroid 2.2f using clockwork.
reports that you can flash cyanogen rom with amom ra bit not tried that way yet.
Happy with leedroid for now any way.
I had to send my .80 boot back to HTC for repair (GPS problem) and it came back with a new mobo and software.
You can root if you follow the correct "How to" some miss a few things out

Just rooted mine last night, no problems.
Am on T-Mobile UK, HBOOT 0.93.0001, radio etc all same as yours, all latest s/w from TMUK as I had just received it back from repair recently.
My steps:
Used Unrevoked 3.22.
Download htc sync, install, then uninstall the sync application, leaving the drivers on. Didn't need to mess with hboot drivers in my case.
Attached device, connected in disk drive mode with usb debugging enabled.
Ran Unrevoked.
That was it.
My PC runs Windows 7 Professional 32-Bit.
I follow the same steps still same hanging with "Waiting for root... (safe to restart if this doesn't work). My ROM is:RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC__ARA_2.32.415.3_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_157343_signed.exe
I tried searching for this but to no avail.. if some one here has better searchfu than me just point me in the right direction but here is my problem.
Im using a 2.2 android HTC desire from O2 I was following the instructions http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788044 here to Root it. I installed the Hboot drivers fine and got Unrevoked working as far as i can tell.
I launch it and it goes through the entire process of restarting my phone into Hboot and then restarting again and stabilising then It starts to root.. says sucess then quickly changes to say "Internal Error: failed to unlock NAND flash?"
It then stops there restarts the phone and has had no effect at all..
Any help will be wonderful

Are you trying to use Unrevoked forever? That only works on CDMA phones (no sim card). If you just want root and flash different roms normal Unrevoked is fine. To see if it went oke boot in to recovery and see if it says ClockworkMod recovery. If yes, everything is fine regarding rooting.
If after this you want to S-off and have a GSM (sim card) phone use AlphaRev.
Im using the version available from unrevoked.com which i belive is just unrevoked
As for booting into recovery i try that... all i get is the phone symbol with the red triangle and then dont get past that when i push power and vol up..

This man speaks the truth, unrEVOked forever won't work on the sim card Desire. I you should now have standard super user permissions. if you do want S-off you will need to go the alpha rev route.
tried using a diff version of unrevoked and this time it says failed to flash recovery image
I just went through all of this with my own phone a few days ago. from what I have learned and read Unrevoked will not give you Nand unlock.
Strange. I tried the latest unrEVOked (not forever) on my unbranded Desire, and did not have any errors like these (NAND unlock, unable to flash). I have:
Bravo PVT1 SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-0.93.0001
except the radio is 5.11.05.27
Hmmm could it be the radio causing the play up?

Maybe.
But i should give it a try. Download the latest unrEVOked from here:
http://www.unrevoked.com/recovery/
Also make sure, you have correctly installed the HBOOT drivers:

I do definitely have the latest version of both of those..

You've searched too far back
Use the guides here to explain everything better: http://androidforums.com/desire-all-things-root/503471-desire-all-things-root-guide.html
Follow it all the way through particularly terminology etc. Everything you need to know is there
Then use the guide to 's-off' using revolutionary. It doesn't technically root but will fully unlock your bootloader which is more powerful.
hello,
i have a htc desire with froyo 2.2 rooted with unrevoked:
BRAVO PVT1 SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-0.93.0001
MICROP-031d
TOUCH PANEL-SYNT0101
RADIO-5.11.05.27
after a few month of usage it reboot itself when using, now it won't boot there's a white screen with htc logo on startup...
when i go to the recovery it doesn't work the white screen appear again, so no access to the recovery...
i tried the RUU (.exe) method, i can't install because of windows not found the drivers, same thing after installing htc sync with drivers...
then i tried the PB99IMG.zip method and the result is that i have an error with a " main version is older " i have tried many version 2.29 2.1 .... and i have the same result : main version is older.
so please i need your help, if some one can rescue me thank you...
Have you tried to debug it yet, via adb logcat? At least it will give you an idea what's causing the bootloop.

thank's for your reply, i didn't tried the adb methode yet because i see that it's so difficult, but i think i'll try it if there is not another solution.

Please help me fix it. The sd-card cannot be read, can't be recognized on my pc, Bluetooth doesn't work and sim is out of service.
Have you looked at the TroubleShooting guide, here:

?
I'm too new at this, and won't be able to help, but you'll need to provide some more detail to get any assistance here, I think. Stuff like software and hardware versions, ROM, what you did to it to get it into the state it's in, how it behaves, etc.

I was backing up my ROM and the ClockWorkRecovery froze and only have an image showing a blurred out picture of the ClockworkRecovery picture so I pulled out my batteries. I tried to turn on my phone but it didn't work so i did a RUU and got me to s-on and unrooted. There was a high possibly that I was USB bricked before I did a Ruu.

Don't you need S-OFF to run those commands because it doesn't work for me
Actually never mind it did work thank you very much!
Hi there guys, I'm new to this place so I'm not entirely sure if this is the right area to post, hope it is XD
So basically, I have my HTC Desire, which I am unable to root. When I try rooting via Revoked, it gets to the screen where it says 'Make sure drivers are installed', but the thing is, when I follow tutorials for installing the drivers (Install HTC Sync, uninstall, connect with the Android 1.0 and update) the problem is, I do get Android 1.0, but I can't update it, it is just grayed out. But then Windows Update does something and it changes to HTC Serial Interface (COM4/5)
So in another tutorial I read I had to unlock bootloader, so I jumped on HTCDev and got the file and then it updated my HBoot to 1.03.0003, which apparently is not something that works or something? (I'm not fully sure, first time rooting D: ) and then I read I had to downgrade, but when I downgrade with the RUU it just won't work, it says to make sure it's connected even though it is. I am fully stuck, and really don't know what to do!
The guides I used (I can't find em all) are:
